8 Days Kiteboarding, Yoga & Surf Retreat in North Shore, Peru

"The kite sisters trip was amazing and beyond my expectations. Chelu and the whole crew was incredible and the organization of the trip was spot on, from the lessons, food, accommodations and other activities! I went on this trip, thinking it would be my one and only non snowboarding trip to realizing I will have to split my trips! I can not wait to travel with kite sisters again!"

"What a great time in Belize!!!! It was a wonderful week, the group was amazing and I made really good friends that I hope it last forever; we are actually right now organizing our next Camp with Kite Sisters together; the Crew is the best, the food (OMG!), they are patience and excellent instructors."

"The place, the House, the meals (was incredible); it was like eating every day in a first class Restaurant… Thanks Juan!"

"And about Chelu and Octa… What can I say? They are extraordinary, they make you feel like home, they are warm, they take care about all the group in every aspect; inside and outside the water. The yoga lessons were essential and the Kitesurfing… I´m loving it more and more thanks to this experience… The Kiteboarding lessons helped a lot, they found all my mistakes, that were carefully explain and motivated me in the frustration moment when nothing was working in the water… I really appreciate that; I will always remember you when I listen to Marc Anthony, hahaha."

"In resumen, when I was back in Madrid, when someone ask me about my trip, I got this happy face with a huge smile (as the ones I used to have during the Yoga lessons (Do you remember Chelu? hahaha); I believe that resumes everything; and I´m thinking in joining more Camps, you will see me often!"

"For years I had been telling myself *someday* I would take a kitesurfing lesson. The more I researched it, the more I knew I wanted to try it in a camp environment where I would have lots of concentrated time and support since it was WAY outside my comfort zone! I could not have found a better place to fulfill this dream than with Kite Sisters."

"Chelu and Octavio have created an amazing thing in these camps: Professionalism, a ten. Instructors, a ten. Accommodations, meals, structure of the camp… passion for the sport, all tens! But most of all, the warmth and personalities of the whole Kite Sisters team made for such a comfortable and fun week in Caye Caulker, Belize. This is not even mentioning how amazing all my Sisters were! I left the camp feeling physically, spiritually and mentally re-energized (so missing your yoga sessions Chelu!) and I can’t wait to sign up for another one."

"5 stars! I was looking forward to my week in Belize and was worried my expectations were too high but they were exceeded! Chelu and team did an amazing job planning out the week including non-kiting activities like snorkeling and wake boarding when the wind wasn’t cooperating. I was fortunate to have Chelu as a coach and it felt like she genuinely wanted to see me improve. She gave me some of the best tips to advance my skills and even got me jumping The other women from around the world were interesting, fun, and supportive which rounded out the perfect week. I hope to make it to future camps and recommend it for women with any level of kiting abilities!"

"Superbe organisation, tout est pensé dans les moindres détails. Belle occasion de rencontrer plusieurs femmes de partout dans le monde et d’échanger dans un contexte amical ou ludique.

Je le recommande à n’importe qui peu importe le niveau, vous allez énormément progresser avec kite sisters. La bouffe est tout simplement débile et mérite à elle seule 5 étoiles!"

"Joined a kite sisters trip in Belize March 2016. Time of my life! I travelled alone and met the most amazing inspiring and fun sisters. Set in an amazing environment with the perfect house and service, including three delicious meals a day prepared by a great chef, morning and evening yoga sessions (very much needed after daily kite sessions) and instructors who were dedicated, professional and above all fun to hang with! Really helped me improve my kitesurfing skills! Miss the girls so much and am staying in touch with everyone, met friends for life. Would recommend the trip for all level kiters."

"My trip with kite sisters in Caye Caulker was fabulous! Chelu is very organized and very professional and thought of every detail from the transfers running smoothly to putting chocolates on our pillows every day. I came back from my trip relaxed and rejuvenated. Chelu and her team provided excellent coaching, yoga twice a day, excellent 3 meals per day, and are always kind and helpful."

"I would recommend this company for trips anywhere in the world as I can trust that they have put their clients best interest as a top priority."

"Thank you Chelu for a super holiday! Xox"

"My trip to Caye Caulker was unBELIZEably awesome thinks to the Kite Sisters team! I came back home feeling refreshed, balanced, and super happy. Yoga twice a day, 3 home cooked meals every day, kite lessons with super patient teachers, a beautiful setting, and just an overall tremendously hospitable and kind staff. I made some great friends too. Thank you so much for everything to Chelu (aka the Head Honcho/Boss Lady) who planned, organized, and handled all the details with such skill and stride. smile emoticon It might sound a little pricey, but it was totally worth every penny and I definitely plan to go to another camp next year!!"

"@Kite-sisters in Caye Caulker was an amazing trip that completely exceeded my expectations. I didn't want it to end! It was a week of adventure, fun and relaxation with memories that will last a lifetime. The kite-sisters crew & staff are a wonderful team whom are very well organized, a pleasure to be around and great instructors. And the food was oh-la-la.... unbelievable! Chelu is a woman who is strong, knowledgeable, spiritual and inspirational. Her personality brings the best out of women at her camp. I feel as if the fabulous woman kiters I met on this adventure are indeed an extension of a family I've known for years...like sisters! I'm a proud Kite-sister!"

"Absolutely amazing experience! This was my dream trip and Kite Sisters far exceeded all expectation. Chelu, Octavio and the guys go above and beyond to make every moment of the week just perfect. I had some kite lessons and experience before, but never made such progress as I did this week. My instructor was very patient, knowledgeable and a joy to work with. Yoga twice a day, incredible food by our own chef---it was easily one of the best weeks of my life. The other gals on the trip were fantastic and we shared a great camaraderie. I can't wait to do another trip with Kite Sisters!"

"Easily the best retreat I have ever been on. Chelu and her crew really did think of everything! I have been on a handful of womens surf/yoga retreats and Kite Sisters takes the gold. I am a beginner kite surfer and by the end of the week I was riding with ease. This is all because of the amazing, confident instruction I received (I have taken lessons before but have never made as much progress). With regards to the other details of the trip the food was amazing. Truly amazing. Chelu brought in a very well-known chef from Lima who cooked amazing, healthy cuisine. The yoga each morning was a perfect balance to the active week. We had other fun excursions such as Sand Boarding and visiting a bird reserve. All of it was unique and memorable. Whats best is that I left with a great group of new friends. I plan to book several more trips with Kite Sisters!"

"Amazing experience (Paracas 2015). Kite Sisters (Chelu & Octavio and their Crew) know how to curate a kite and yoga camp with class and maturity. Everything was so well organized and you really felt that you were taken care of. You could tell even in the beginning with the ease of registration and the flow of information. You are really taken care of."

"We had excellent conditions to learn to kite in. And the level of attention for each kiter was phenomenal."

"Yoga instruction was also excellent and a good balance to the intensity that learning the sport of kiting can bring."

"I will definitely be back! Thank you Kite Sisters Crew (Chelu, Octavio, Juan Carlos, Arjan and Juan) "

This trip will elevate your soul and challange your mind and body in the most exciting ways possible. Cant wait to go back and looking forward to booking another camp. Thanks so much to all my new sisters!"

"Kite Sisters literally blew me away! By far, one of the most memorable, exciting and challenging experiences of my life that I wont soon forget. As a beginner, I was introduced to this sport by the most experienced, talented and knowledgeable instructor. With a natural attitude for teaching and a patience level to rival a saint, their love and passion for the sport was easily transferred to me."

"In addition to kiting, our week was filled daily with the most delicious food in all of Peru, fun surfing trips, and beautifuly relaxing yoga sessions on the beach lead by Chelu. She truly knows how to balance your mind and body after working hard out on the water. Her calming presence and gentle practice was perfect in every way."

"If you are new to this sport or if you are an experienced kiter looking for an amazing new location to kite, you wont do better than the Kite Sisters. The service and attention to detail was impeccable. Everything they do is with a smile and I sincerely appreciated all of the hard work and effort involved in making my retreat so special. Looking forward to the next time I can join them and show off all that I have been practicing! Thank you again, for everything!"

"Essaouira 2015, an amazing experience! From the beginning to the end was incredible: the crew (Chelu, Octavio and Paula) are awesome, very supportive, with a lot of experience and patience to teach. The girls who shared the week with me are great, is incredible how fast you can became friends with people form places and ages so diverse. About the destination: the riad was beautiful, the roof was the perfect place to the morning yoga and the afternoon chill; the food was the best that I've eat in Morocco. I had a lot of fun, I've learned, gained confidence and motivation to ride. I would definitively recommend the camps and I'm looking forward to do it again on a new destination!"

"I had the opportunity to spend a week in May with a group of wonderful people in Cabarete, Dominican Republican, doing one of the things I like to do the most in the world: kiteboarding!!!! I had the opportunity to hang out with 8 wonderful, strong, smart, independent, beautiful, HILARIOUS women (you know who you are, Kite Sisters!!!), and got to know the crew of Kite Sisters, who I adore! I cannot even describe how much fun I had! Thanks to all of you for making it such a wonderful time and here's to seeing you all in Belize in 2016 for another week of kiting, fun and bachataaaaaaa!"

"I knew when I first booked this trip that I would enjoy myself. Learning and meeting other girls around the world? Why not! The fact is, I never thought I would enjoy myself THIS much. As a beginner, Paracas was the perfect destination. No deep water close to the shore, great winds and calm sea without waves, all conditions were there that I could feel comfortable. Besides kitesurfing, Paracas and Peru in general offer so much more. Food is amazing (OMG! Im still dreaming about it!), landscapes are breath taking and locals are nice and welcoming. The Kite Sisters crew is also amazing. Everything is so well organized and planned nicely so you dont have to care about anything during the trip, from the pickup at the airport to the kite lessons. Where is the rewind button on my life so I could live this trip over and over again?"

"I went along on the trip to Tulum with my girlfriend who wanted to advance her kitesurfing skills. I had never had a chance to do it before as I was recovering from a broken ankle when she started lessons. So, with my ankle still not being great and my fitness levels at the lowest they've ever been, I was extremely nervous.However Chelu and her team were awesome. They made me feel completely at ease, were aware of my injury and made sure I was ok with everything and looked after me. They are very chilled, safety aware and want everyone to do well. I really enjoyed my lessons.I am vegetarian. Great care was taken to look after me and make sure all my meals were suitable along with others who had other dietary needs. I really felt like Kite Sisters went above and beyond to make sure we had a perfect trip. Tulum and particularly the place we stayed were beautiful. The diving was incredible.I met some amazing women on the trip. Everyone was friendly and lovely. We were the only couple in the group but having been on this trip I would definitely feel comfortable booking to go on a kite sisters trip alone ... that being said, my girlfriend may object to that! We would love to do the Belize trip next time!"

"I had a great time at the Kite Sisters camp in Tulum Mexico. Chelu, Octavio, Marco and Paula took care of every detail from before our arrival to the day we left to ensure everyone had the best possible time. I met a great bunch of women from all over the world to share kiting and diving adventures with. They took us off the beaten track to places we would never have otherwise experienced. No matter what your level of kiting experience the kite sisters team are there to give you help and advice. I can't wait for my next Kite Sisters trip!"

"Tulum, April 2015 The trip was one of the best experiences in my life. Chelu, Octavio and their team were very professional and always paying attention to the trip details. Delicious food! Spectacular stay! Chelu is an excellent instructor. She teached me from the basics to standing on the board, making me feel safe in what I was doing. It has been a week since I arrived from my trip to Tulum and I already want to have a second trip with the Kite Sisters. I love my sisters!"

"If anyone is even remotely thinking about taking a Kite Sister trip, GO!!! From being met at the airport to being delivered at the airport, every detail is thought through completely, making it the most stress free vacation that one can have. The small group, the fabulous kiting instruction and awesome yoga (from a non yogi), made for an unforgettable week. Our group were ages 16-61 and some were never evers on a kite, some just a little, and some pros. Each one of us was given individual instruction to our learning level. They will make you want to run away and travel to every spot they go!"

"My experience with Kite Sisters in Caye Caulker, Belize by far exceeded my expectations! I was a beginner kite surfer and knew very little about the sport. The lessons, explanations and instructions were well-paced and the instructors were incredibly patient. I felt like the progression of the lessons were appropriate, allowing time for us to process and apply the new techniques in proper time throughout the week (kite handling, body drag, water start, etc). The Kite Sisters crew was amazing - friendly, funny, helpful and encouraging. Further, every meal at the villa was scrumptious - especially the homemade tortillas! I also very much enjoyed the daily yoga sessions, with the specific kite-related neck stretches. I highly recommend Kite Sisters and hope to attend another retreat in the future!"

"It it is not only the adventurous fun sport and the contact with nature that I love about kitesurfing , it is also the people you get to meet while kiting. I think kiting is practiced most of the time by very interesting, fun and lovely people and all that and more is what I found at the kite-sisters trip.I spent an amazing week at Paracas. Kiting sessions were awesome, professional lessons based on video and objective feedback, strong winds, the spot is beautiful right where the dessert meets the sea, we stayed at a very nice and comfy house with a pool and everything only 5 minutes away from the kite point, the delicious food was cooked by local and very nice people. Chelu and Octavio are one of the best hosts I have ever stayed with. They are fun, nice and passionate, they took care of every detail, were present at all times and made the most out of the experience.I am grateful for having had this amazing experience and have meet so many girls with the same interests whom I am sure I will meet again. Being there, sharing the passion for the sport and having fun together really creates a sisterhood. Thank you all for everything, see you soon again at an other kite-sister trip."

"Kite sisters camp in Paracas, Peru was the best trip I've ever taken. I had taken a few lessons previous to kite sisters and I didn't have confidence with kite control and I couldn't ride. After a 3 days in Paracas, under Chelu's guidance and support, I was up and riding by day 3! I gained so much confidence with my kite control and riding from kite sisters. The morning Yoga classes instructed by Chelu was such a great way to start our mornings. Chelu is an amazing instuctor, she is patient but pushes you to overcome your fears by giving you proper training to control the kite and ride.The camp was an amazing experience because I was able to meet other women, just like me, who are adventurous and passionate about improving or learning kite surfing. We had an amazing group of women in our camp, everyone was so supportive and most of all we had such a great time hanging out with each other on the beach and off the beach. I made life long friends from around the world on this trip.In addition, the accommodation was absolutely beautiful. Chelu and Octavio arranged a gorgeous villa for us to stay in. All of our meals were so delicious, definitely up to Peruvian cuisine standards. The food was so fresh and we were so well taken care of. This was one of the most amazing trips I've ever taken and have had my fair share of travel experience. I'm looking forward to joining another kite sisters camp in the future. Thanks much for everything Chelu and Octavio!"

"If you are thinking about going on a trip with the Kite Sisters trust me, you should just GO! Chelu and Octa make the trip so incredibly awesome. The Tulum location was beautiful, the food was delicious, the accomodations were lovely it was all around a fantastic trip. We had all levels of kite sisters from beginner to advanced and everyone had a great time. We also had a really great range of ages; from about 25 to 55. The conversation on the beach and at meals was always interesting because we had sisters from all over the world. Chelu and Ocat are very much on top of things so I felt very safe in the water. When we had a day of no wind we took a road trip to another location that was totally windy and epic. flat water for miles and miles. It was incredible. I have been kiting for many years and have been on many trips but this one was definitely one of my favorites."

"With the help of Octavio and Chelu's coaching, I took my riding to the next level in Peru, beginning to ride with a directional surf board. Talk about an amazing setting: we kited near humpback whales that were jumping out of the water! The miles of white sand beach weren't bad either. Our private villa for the week was so pretty and I loved falling asleep at night to the sound of waves crashing. We also did yoga in the backyard overlooking the beach and ocean. The biggest challenge was maintaining focus and not gazing too much at the whales! We had excellent, home cooked meals at the villa and got to try a lot of different Peruvian dishes."

"I got to know KiteSister thru the internet, when looking for a girls kiting camp! After a little research ended up going to the Northshore camp - and did not know what to expect at all! Guess what - I loved it! The staff was amazing - Chelu and Octa are super cool and nice, you can feel at home. The house was beautiful and super confy - with great food - was a great surprise."

"As for kitting we had great conditions, perfect weather and could kite every day! Everyone was up to help you, so the ambience was really nice :) Had a great time :)"

"My experience with Kite Sisters was amazing! I started with kite surf courses in Rosario, Argentina, in the Parana River in February 2012. Awesome but difficult for me, considering that I was 48 in that moment and it was a challenge, as I dont practice sports because I dont like it. In may I bought my first gear and keep practicing in the Parana River; but I needed more lessons to get confidence, loose that fear to the Kite, feel independent and being able to ride free and happy and I managed to do that in Paracas, Peru, an amazing spot, flat water, steady wind, 4 hours of kitesurf every day with Chelu and Octa, my new instructors!When I finally, after 2 or 3 days without stopping, I got to really ride, I cried of emotion in the middle of the Paracas Bay, because I did it! I have to say, Im a lawyer, university teacher, too many books, words and reading, lot of Law; but in Paracas I finally got to understand the nature, water and wind laws and all together in my mind and soul, today with 49 years old I did it!It was a challenge and a big achievement, and now Im coming for the next one. When I arrive to the 50s, with more hours in the water, I will start to jump. Kite Sisters was and is a very important part of this new stage in my life! Kitesurf gave me back the horizon, the illusion and the game; with almost 50 years old; when everybody is waiting that you start to become a grumbling old lady. As we say in Rosario with my friends: In the name of the Wind, the Water and the Holly Kite!"

"I decided to make a Kite Sisters trip thanks to the confidence that Chelu gave me and the professionalism with which everything was managed; from the transportation, the hotel, the gear, the meals and the shared moments. On my trip, I met wonderful girls; we had a great time, and Im still in contact with 3 of them. Everything was designed to make us enjoy from early in the morning, with yoga lessons, that woke us up and activated most of us, followed by lots of breakfast talks, after we jumped into the water to practice surf, trying to get a wave, during the afternoon Kitesurf! This is what motivated me the most from the trip.Chelu and Octavio gave me the confidence that I needed to completely enjoy this amazing sport. After returning tired from a busy day, we used to go directly to the hot water bathtub to recover and share a beautiful sunset, the day finished perfectly, with a tiredness enriched by adventures, good company and laughs. The day after, the fun continue. Thanks for this wonderful and unforgettable experience, ready to repeat. Absolutely recommended without doubts."

"Such an amazing experience!! At first you like it because it is an enclosed pack with all the activities planned, but moreover, what I really appreciate is the way they develop everything; it is special and unique. They put heart and soul into every single detail, and they make us feel very happy!!!! Special attention to the classes; very professional and effective. I cannot stop thinking on next trip with my favorite instructors. They were also so patient with all of us. For those girls who want to live the best experience ever with people with the same interests and dreams, dont hesitate to become a Kite sister!"
